Belliniger was available this year for one reason: he was absolutely TERRIBLE the past 3 years. There's a reason the Cubs got him cheap (ish) and it isn't because they were more cleaver than the other teams in MLB. Bellinger would have been yet another iteration of the Hicks, Doanldson bloated-veteran signing that has driven Yankees fans crazy. Had he been signed, Bellinger would have most certainly become tainted by the "Cashman effect" and seen his average crumble to .186 by the All Star break.
And weren't you one of the many crying for Oswaldo to get more ABs and reps in the line up?
